Description<p>Teeth-staining purple color and deep concentration lead to Shiraz-like aromas of menthol, anise, and a hint of white pepper. Plush dark cherry fruit and rich earthy flavors finish with a touch of game, coffee, and sweet oak. Mouth-coating tannins lend elegance and richness through its long and generous finish. -- Rolando Herrera, winemaker</p><p><strong>86 Points, Wine Enthusiast:</strong></p><p>"Tastes pretty sweet, like a good Syrah that’s been doctored with a tablespoon of white sugar. If that’s your style, you’ll enjoy the rich cherry, currant, chocolate and spice flavors. S.H." (12/15/2010)</p>
